Worst Place for Walking Dead Ad, Outside a Funeral Home

The zombies of AMC’s hit show The Walking Dead have landed in Britain with a marketing campaign that includes the requisite on-air promos and outdoor billboards.  Just one problem, Clear Channel the firm that posts the billboards made a mistake. Yup.  They put up a large billboard for the show outside a funeral home.  More [...]

Open Letter to Mad Men Creator Matthew Weiner and AMC

Please get yours heads out of your respective asses. I CAN NOT suffer another heartbreak like Deadwood again. So here’s what you’re going to do lest I think you a bunch of asshats in desperate need of a pox. AMC you are going stop asking to cut six cast members over the next three seasons. [...]

Epic Fail for Groupon Super Bowl Ads

On the day after, comes outrage in the blogosphere over the  “controversial” Super Bowl ads featuring Timothy Hutton and Elizabeth Hurley.  In one of the ads, Hutton tells us that, “The people of Tibet are in trouble.  Their very culture is in jeopardy. But they still whip up an amazing fish curry.” Which is great [...]

Persons Unknown, Pointlessly Bad TV

I really must remember to write a note to myself reminding me to not watch ANY shows that are basically knock offs of The Prisoner. They are ALL shit with no real endings except for the original Prisoner because Patrick McGoohan was dreamy. For the better part of the summer I have been watching Persons [...]

Unfortunately enjoyment of [...]

Want To Save Your Favorite TV Show?

Chadwick Matlin’s article on saving TV shows at The Big Money, first made me laugh since I thought this was going to be yet another whining TV fan asking other people to saving their beloved show from cancellation (Moonlight, Veronica Mars, etc), but it turns out its the most honest and potentially effective thing I’ve [...]

My favorite ads from Super Bowl 43… #1) The Monster.com ad– the simplicity of it speaks volumes. #2) The Career Builder spot, delivers a similar message. #3) The Teleflora ad — I’m a sucker for crass humor. This has to be my all time favorite Super Bowl ad, from at least ten year ago (I [...]

How is it that SNL’s Andy Samberg comes up with catchier tunes than most of the people up for Grammy Awards this year?  Not that I’m going to be whistling this one in my car or blaring it with the windows down– but it approaches the genius of last year’s Dick in A Box.  The [...]
